All #ourCOG News 5.0
No doubt about it! We face uncertain and troubling times.
The world is rapidly changing, and pressures are great to accept new norms. I hardly pay attention to news that is older than 48 hours. There is so much happening SO quickly these days.
I think I speak for many who may be asking, “Where is all this chaos headed?” “Is there a roadmap through it all?” “What can we really KNOW?”
You see the graphic here. Let me give you some background.
Roughly 15 years ago, I faced a request to teach a series on Bible prophecy. I had not done this before – and honestly, I wasn’t sure at that time what all I understood about it.
It was in many ways an overwhelming undertaking, but I felt it was very important to do. I took on the challenge to teach this series.
I faced a clean sheet of paper. I didn’t want to go the easy route and simply teach what other people had taught. Too many folks just regurgitate conventional ideas and shortcomings that others may have. No, I wanted to personally get to the bottom of each prophetic issue, and I wanted to start with a clear understanding of the completeness, inerrancy, and authority of God’s Word.
In other words, I wanted to study the Bible PROPERLY for myself. That meant understanding words and phrases in their original language. It also meant arriving at conclusions that conformed to what all other passages on a particular topic were also stating. And finally, it meant rigorously understanding the context and preserving a proper dispensational view.
The bottom line is I wanted to take my same high standards of teaching and apply them here. It was no easy task.
That original series was the prototype of what has since become “A Biblical View of the End Times.” I have taught it three more times after that first go-round, and I have refined it and added more content with each run-through.
I am now confident in saying it is one of the most comprehensive teaching series on Bible prophecy that is out there. I know; I’ve looked.
This graphic here announces the FIFTH time I will be teaching “A Biblical View of the End Times.” This next series will start Thursday, June 11, in Longmont, CO – so for all you Front Range folks that may be reading this, please consider joining us in person. I’d love to meet you!
However, this next time is also SPECIAL. Each session of this series will ALSO be live-streamed every Thursday evening (6:00 PM Mountain Standard Time). So, it doesn’t matter where you are in the world; you can take advantage of this opportunity to be a part.
The best way for you to join the live stream is by going to the host church’s website www.gracebiblelongmont.org. Their webpage will have a link to the live stream on their front page.
We’re roughly a month out from starting this new series – but I’ll conclude by mentioning three things:
First, you can learn more about this series, “A Biblical View of the End Times,” here: https://solidbreadcommunity.com/abvotet-longmont/. This link shows some of the specific topics this series will cover. You will see this study is comprehensive and sound.
Second, PLEASE forward this information to others in your network. Let them know of it. Please tell as many teachers, pastors, ministries, Bible study leaders, etc., as you can. Maybe you can organize a Bible study around this live stream and invite a few friends. These are important and timely themes.
And third, you can direct any questions you may have to [email protected]
Thank you for your consideration,
STEVE SCHMUTZER
